Hi
Worth a try is to clean the paddle sensors as you can get a film build up from the softner and human grease 😯 causing incorrect resistence readings back to PCB.
Also the drop in filter gets blocked with similar deposits, quick test is to run it under tap and if allows water through is fine.
Dry it fully obviously before using again 😀
Under loading aswell, ie a couple of smalls will probably not be enough for a true reading between paddles and drum, thus causing premature switch off.Greg
Re: MIELE T5206 DRIER
Yeah as Gegsy says, the paddles in the drum are insulated form the main drumm, a resistance reading is taken by the electronics which turns off the heat when clothes are dry. Take top off machine see where brushes run on slip-ring. Check for brush wear, also check for deposit of dirt / dust etc shorting between paddles & drum at mounting. Best to check for heating on programme “TIMED HEATING” which is not an automatic programme.
